PHONETIC AND PHOLOGICAL VARIATIONS BETWEEN BRITISH AND AMERICAN ENGLISH
Keywords:

With an emphasis on important elements including vowel sounds, consonantal distinctions, stress patterns, and intonation, this article examines the phonetic and phonological differences between British and American English. Phonological differences describe how these sounds are arranged and patterned in language, whereas phonetic variations describe changes in the actual sounds made in speech. The rhotic [r] sound in American English and the non-rhotic [r] sound in British English are two specific examples of pronunciation variances that are highlighted in the article. Other examples include variations in vowel sounds in words like dance and thought. Furthermore, it discusses how intonation and stress shape regional accents.Given that English is spoken in many geographical locations, these linguistic variances provide important insight into the diversity of the language. Linguists, English language learners, and anybody else interested in the linguistic diversity of the language should be aware of these differences.
